Running a 1000 colonies of bees requires only the latest in technology to produce some of the finest pure English Honey, here at Maisemore Apiaries we have invested heavily to maintain supply to our valued customers.

Our automated process can extract honey from 120 frames at a time, the honey leaves the extractor and gets pumped to the heat exchanger. After leaving the heat exchanger the honey runs into a centrifuge, a large stainless steel drum which is contstantly spinning forcing the clean honey to the outside of the drum and keeping the wax and any other debris to the inside.

The wax is recycled and the Honey is led to a 5 tonne storage tank, it can then be bottled directly, or gently warmed & `creamed` to become set honey.Cleanliness and hygiene are paramount here at Maisemore Apiaries, our honey is probably the finest purest English Flower or Heather Honey in the world.
